Dr. Lieberman Explains How to Treat the Root Cause of Addiction!

- How does dopamine shape your desires-both positively and negatively? Dopamine is one of many neurotransmitters produced in your brain and is most commonly associated with pleasure. But there’s actually more to it than that. It’s the basis of motivation, incentivizing you to do things because you want something. And while that can lead to success and discoveries, it can also result in addictions of all shapes and sizes.
I’m excited to talk to our guest today, Dr. Daniel Lieberman, MD. Dr. Lieberman is a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at George Washington University. He’s also the co-author of the international bestseller, The Molecule of More: How a Single Chemical in Your Brain Drives Love, Sex, and Creativity - and Will Determine the Fate of the Human Race: amzn.to/3u2y5HX
The nature of dopamine is to push for more. But that actually shifts your focus from the present moment into the future where you only see what you don’t have. That can lead to feeling chronically dissatisfied and unable to enjoy the things you’ve worked hard for. Listen in as Dr. Lieberman shows you how you can leverage this powerful chemical to go after the good and let go of the bad.

I’m trapped in doom scrolling. It has ruined my sleep, creativity, learning capabilities and performance. Naturally this has impacted my health and everything I do.
Me too
Control over breathe means control over your mind: be the master of your mind n body don’t let it be the master of you…
Do box breathing
Watch the social dilemma documentary
Go in nature
I'm addicted to this channel, dang this can't be good
Great to hear this information. I've been on a journey in my life. Adhd has afflicted me all my life . I did my best family ,own a business juggling all my life affairs. Till I hit a wall of pain of dark depression. Drank and drugged with malice . Found the 12 step AA program It took me 8 years to get centered in my truth. Truth is the only cure.
So enjoy your podcasts Jim! You are AMAZING! Thank you for propelling me to get UP and start living! Growing! Fulfilling my Soul’s desire to lift others UP! Getting my book finished after starting 20 years ago! Thank you! ~for all you do!
Thanks for doing this interview! I’ve had bulimia for many years now and my executive functioning has really gone down the drain. It seems like there are different ways to look at addiction, but I can really relate to the dopamine perspective. I’ve been trying to remind myself that wanting is not the same as liking.
I love this, I have cut back on a lot of stuff so that I can get more done. My problem is watching TV. I find that I am leaving it off more so that I can be more productive.
Thank you so much!😊
On days when I need to rest because tomorrow is exciting …I can’t sleep!!! Now I know why.
Kwik I really admire you, but there is thing I've got from you in your book limitless that has transformed my whole life that thing is " knowledge is not power instead it is a potential of powe" from then on I always try to implement what I learn.
Thanks
You guys are trillions of times smarter than me I Love to learn
Powerful
lol perfect. Reading a good book is like sipping a fine wine!! I know an excellent book to start with 😉
Cool quote, I'm going to borrow it :)
Thank you so much it's been extremely helpful! Do you have anything based on concussion recovery I'm a jujitsu teacher and recently I've took a small concussion I'm doing significantly better by staying off social media eating healthy and getting the blood flow by walking! Thank you for your response much love❤
I was interested in working with you as a video editor for your UA-cam channel.
I quit Facebook because I was too thirsty for likes 👍
Now I just hope someone likes my comment on UA-cam!
Thank you. Actually I feel trapped. I can't study. I just feel like don’t wanting to use my brain these days. It’s realy srong.
Feel that
Start with 3 day water only fast- do box breathing-get good night sleep…
Turn your UA-cam watch history off to get fewer suggestions.
Thus far, the doctor has not covered the addiction part, especially talking about drugs and alcohol
In a past marriage I was not attended to sexually.
When my daughter's died, he wasn't available to me.
He suffered from dementia and bipolar disease.
He left me for another.
I now am a DVS by his hands.
I'm so fried out on men. 🤔What to do...
He cleaned me out financially.
You need small dose of testosterone hormone to get more ho*ny ....and every man essentially need se*x like food (we are different than women)
GOD is my accountability Partner when it comes to my addictions

I stopped drinking over 16 years ago. I’ve been going to AA for 37 years. It took me a long time to finally stop. I did it by having a desire to stop drinking. This guy does not know what the heck he’s talking about. At 0:04 which is at the beginning of this video he said overcoming addiction. It’s not about being strong it’s being smart. WRONG! The person has to go to their rock-bottom to finally have the desire to stop. And I don’t like your hook at.0:41
Without doomscrolling I wouldn't have seen this video.
talk about over thinking and over analyzing
sheeesh and no offense i think Lieberman is just trying to sell a book instead of really trying to help anyone
First to comment and watch 🥹 what a beautiful video.
